    Guys,

    The current WordPress has both Visual and HTML editors. Suppose I want to write some PHP code, where should I put it ? I was trying to place my PHP code in the HTML editor within the “<?php ?>” tags but it did not work. Thanks.

    In your template files.

    Hi, I’m not clear. Would you please clarify!

    Say I want to create a new page and I want to customize it with some PHP code, I have to go in and modify the existing template files ? Is there a code editor that accepts PHP code for the pages that I create ? (I don’t want to mess with the header and footer since they should look uniform across all pages). Still, I should be able to customize the middle part (body) for each page that I create, right ?

    I’m going to read the Codex/Documentation for WordPress shortly but I’ll appreciate any response. Thanks.

    if you want to do page specific php coding, you would need to create a page template for that specific page, and assign it.

    once you create a page templeate, and upload it into your theme, it will be accessible from WP editor

    admin area->appearance->editor
